One of my upper front tooth is turned out and I was told I should remove my 2 upper bicuspids for braces. Ive seen someone who had this done and she had the appearance of a pushed in/smushed look. I was also told I have beautiful big teeth and when they become straight with braces, it will seem I have too much teeth for my mouth/jaw. I also have a strained look when I try to close my mouth or touch my lips together. I figured it was because of my turned out tooth but Ortho said it doesnt have anything to do with it. I dont want to change my profile or my smile, I just want straight teeth. Ortho said because I have big, beautiful teeth, it will only look fuller/bigger once they are straightened so I was told they can put the braces on and I can decide later when my teeth are straighter to pull them out if it does seem to be too much teeth. My question is, if I do decide to pull out the fangs after my teeth are straight, how much longer will I need to continue wearing the braces to close the gaps? How much of my smile/profile will change? Can the Dr decide how much to push it back or is it all or nothing once they are out? I hear a lot of people saying they regret pulling teeth out because it changes their smile/profile and they are unhappy with it.
